1987 Porsche 911 Carrera Coupe

This 1987 Porsche 911 Carrera Coupe is a remarkable example of the celebrated 3.2-liter Carrera, distinguished by its extraordinary factory color combination, low mileage, and beautifully preserved presentation. According to its Porsche Certificate of Authenticity, this Carrera was completed on March 2, 1987 and finished in Dark Blue over Lipstick Red leatherette, a striking and highly individual pairing that gives the car a presence unlike nearly any other G-body 911 of the period.

The 1987 model year is especially desirable among Carrera 3.2 enthusiasts, as it marked the introduction of the G50 5-speed manual transmission. More refined than the earlier gearbox yet still wonderfully analog, the G50 helped make the late 1980s Carrera one of the most rewarding and usable air-cooled 911s ever produced. Paired with Porsche’s charismatic 3.2-liter flat-six, the result is a car that feels mechanical, honest, and deeply connected to the driver.

This example’s specification is what truly sets it apart. The Dark Blue exterior gives the classic 911 coupe shape an understated, elegant character, while the Lipstick Red interior adds an unmistakable sense of drama. Open the door and the cabin immediately feels special: red upholstery, red carpeting, Carrera-script floor mats, the classic five-gauge instrument layout, and the simple, purposeful ergonomics that define the air-cooled 911 experience.

The accompanying Certificate of Authenticity lists desirable factory equipment including a heated left seat, Blaupunkt Reno radio, limited-slip differential, heavy-duty windshield cleaning, headlight washers, forged alloy wheels, rear window wiper, full power left seat, sport shock absorbers, deleted model designation, lumbar support for the left seat, electric sliding sunroof, U.S. standard emissions, and Dunlop tires. Together, these options create a Carrera that feels both sporting and highly tailored.

Showing only 27,000 miles and understood to have had just four owners, this Carrera presents as a wonderfully preserved example of one of Porsche’s most enduring air-cooled models. Its condition, mileage, color combination, and COA-documented specification make it far more compelling than an ordinary Carrera 3.2.

For the collector seeking a standout G50 Carrera, or the enthusiast who wants an air-cooled 911 with true individuality, this 1987 Porsche 911 Carrera Coupe is simply stunning in every way. Elegant, rare in specification, beautifully equipped, and unmistakably Porsche, it represents the kind of car that leaves a lasting impression long after the drive is over.
